I hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!!!

You said the shield lost integrity, but seeing how hard the 700 Nitro round was lodged in there, I'd say it gained integrity from that.

One thing I don't think you've done yet is do an apples-to-apples comparison of your more badass elephant gun rifles up against just a standard 50 BMG. I'd really like to see where the 50 BMG stands when put up against the 500/700 Nitro or the 577 Tyrannosaur. Cool video as always, and it's never lost on me how you have to drop several hundred dollars on ammo alone every time you bring out the big guns. 👍

That was a pretty interesting test. Really didn't expect the ballistic shield to stand up against some incredibly powerful rounds.

I think this goes to show how important some amount of protection is. Even though the shield was not rated for such a powerful round, it managed to stop it enough to the point where you'd only have a broken arm. Which I'd take a broken arm over dying any day.

Man that slow mo of the predator just eating that glass is pretty amazing. Cinematic beauty.

Any company that sends you their product has absolute faith in their craftsmanship

I am just as surprised that the shield stopped the 700 Nitro Express and 577 T-Rex, especially considering it took a bit of damage beforehand. That is an impressive shield.

The alien looked so forlorn when it toppled over, poor soldier. Funny as shiizzle!

To be fair by the time the 416 hit it the shield was comprimised so brand new it very well may have held up. All in all an outstanding fun video to watch.

Congratulations on hitting 3 million subscribers!!! You absolutely deserve it. Your passion and expertise on firearms is second to none. Hope your channel continues to grow. Keep up the great work!!!

Awesome video Scott. My Sheriff's Department just got those same ballistic shields and it's great to see the effectiveness of it. Absolutely love everything you do brother with Kentucky Ballistics and Customs. You're definitely my favorite Gun-tuber.

I have to take issue with the 416. I think it had an advantage because of the damage already done by the 700 Nitro and the 577. Also, the Back Panel came off and was never replaced, and from the way the 416 did not penetrate the Predator after, I doubt it had enough energy to go through the panel. I feel like the 306 also had some of that advantage.

Hats off to the Predinator for holding up that shield, taking glass to the face, and only falling over a couple of times. What a champ! And congrats on 3 million subs. I'm happy to be one of them!

Congratulations on 3m, Scott! My dad loves your videos too. He calls you "that crazy guy from Kentucky". Merry Christmas, sir.

I’m not sure if you will see this but your content has helped me get thru a lot of depression. Me and my brothers have something to relate and look forward to from your content. Just gonna keep it short and simple; thanks for always having a positive attitude (even when your 50 cal exploded). It’s admirable and I feel like a lot of people should strive to live their lives that way. Anyway keep up the great work! On the road to 4 mil subs, I know you will get there 💥 👍

It's insane to think that just over a year ago, maybe a year and a half ago, but Scott's 50. Cal blew up in his face. Mad respect and so much love Scott. I'm so happy to know you're doing great and still going strong with the videos! Merry christmas and happy new year!

Not entirely convinced that the 416 Rigby would make it through a fresh shield or not. That shield had quite a bit of trauma. Was definitely surprised though at what it could take!

Whoever edits your videos is an absolute gem.

If it was a brand new shield, none of those rounds would have passed through. But with the integrity of the shield compromised with the damage it had received from the previous rounds, it made it easier to penetrate. Try testing each round on a brand new shield and you would see the true strength of that shield, its astonishing.

You're my favorite guntuber. Hope you and your dad keep it up for many years to come!

I am glad to see you finally using a sharpie to label the bullet holes! LOL I have wondered why you and Demo haven't done that before LOL It would certainly make it a lot easier to tell the difference.

Can we talk about just what a good shot this man is?? He's got serious time and money invested in these tools, and to make a good video you have to hit where you're aiming. There are only so many do-overs possible. Excellent marksman with both handguns and long guns!

7:53 That fall was very dramatic.😄

That is one seriously impressive shield. Props to the materials engineers who came up with that.

I have to say i am loving the 416 Rigby more and more for every thing it zips on through :-) I wonder if it would go through a car front to back, engine included... Also calling it the Honeybadger made me laugh so much it hurt. Best of luck and congratulations Scott, looking forward to the next video, my suggestion? "What does it take to stop the 416 Rigby."

i have some exreme respect for this guy like he survived a 50 cal explosion and still decides to make videos

I'm REALLY impressed with how flat that .30-06 stayed shooting that fast! 06 is no weakling, I would've never thought it would've been that drama free shooting that fast.

Congratulations on 3 million! Hard earned and well deserved! You & your Dad put so much into the production of these videos for us. Here's to the next milestone! 🍻

The 416 is one hell of a round. A friend of mine that hunts in Africa quite often swears by it. He hand-loads for it, usually with 450gr bullets I think, and his rifle is the same as yours, the magnum sized Brno (CZ) with no optics. The one time I fired it, it did kick like a horse..... definitely an offhand proposition.

That microtech otf looks pretty tough. I'm impressed more by that than anything.

Tactical T-Rex! ❤ it’s amazing that Scott still brings stuff back from his early days. Predinator didn’t look like he had a good day

3 mil??? Gratz, brother! Been with ya' since pine boards and I can genuinely say that it makes my heart happy that you've come so far. You deserve it!

KB: "I know I sound like Goldberg" Also KB: *Hogan impression*

During WW I the British were getting taken apart by German snipers firing behind steel plate because the British guns couldn't penetrate the armor. That was until the British big game hunters started loaning their elephant guns to the war effort. They were typically 500 Nitro Express guns, and they went through the steel like butter. Although, one of the first British soldiers fired the gun while laying prone and shattered his collar bone.

I thought it was going to take a .50BMG to get through. The glass holding up to the .500 S&W was impressive as well.

Congratulations on 3 million!!! You have worked hard to bring us great content, and you deserve all the good things that come your way!

You and Edwin Sarkissiam gotta do a collaboration sooner or later. You guys are both hilarious to watch, although I’m pretty certain your knowledge of firearms and ballistics supersedes his. Both of your channels are extremely entertaining in any case!! Happy Holidays to you and yours from Canada Scott!! 🎄☮️🙏🇨🇦🍻

Man, this really got me in the mood for shooting stuff Congrats on 3 million Scott, love ya 🎉🎉🎉

@0:20 I saw that coming a mile away 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Happy 3 Million Scott! Hope you feel better soon; all the best!

I love your bullet vs shield videos!!!! awesome man!

IMO one of the best videos in a long time. Excellent work....both content and editing.

I guess I’ll say it.. Maybe a fresh shield with first shot from the 416. 700 nitro and 577 tyrannosaur certainly compromised a huge portion of that shield. Would love to see a 416 on a fresh shield then how many 22 LR it takes to get through 😂

That 30-.06 is always going to be my favourite. What an awesome machine.

A random vietnamese veteran: we won the war. Americans: 7:35

That was seriously impressive watching what that shield ate. Super cool video, Scott. Loved it. I am seriously jonesing that HCAR.

Congratulations on 3 million subscribers, Scott! You work hard for these videos, they’re educational, and they always make me laugh. Well done, sir.

Scott, I have urgent news for you: Late Last Year Development and early this year Production started on the .500 Bushwhacker cartridge, basically what .460 is to .454 Casull. You should look into getting a firearm in the cartridge.

15:26 bro was just minding his own business 😆

Happy 3 million subscribers scott, its been a long way and a very exciting moment for you and us and the content is incredible, have a nice day!

Ballistic fiberglass is definitely impressive. I am surprised it isn't used more.

I felt the way the predator slowly fell over, twice, after being hit was an accurate depiction of what a human would do after the shield absorbed the hit. The concussion from the hit must be enough to stun you.

Simply glued to this amazing action. By the way, you are funny too!👍

I love that nickname, “honey badger.“ It does not give a crap.

Man that shield was IMPRESSIVE!! Not gonna lie, I got pretty excited when you pulled out the .577. Been wanting to see more of it and what it can go through. Then you pulled out the 416 Rigby. My two favorite guns on your channel. Awesome video as always man! Btw, thanks for bringing back the POUPON shirts for cyber monday! I missed out on them the first time but not this time!!

Honestly im very impressed how this shield held up against exotic rounds that are used to hunt big game. Until the 416 Rigby came along lol.😂 Also my favorite firearm used in this video would have to be 700 nitro it’s just so intimidating.😅

That sound when you pull the 700 Nitro Casing out is just so so satisfying

Scott, I honestly think the .416 Rigby has the most penetration of any of your hunting rifles, because velocity is king and it has such a high FPS. Thats why its beating out much larger calibers.

Not to over think it, but what if you had a g-force sensor? That way you could see how much force would be applied to the arm of a person holding the shield. Just wondering if someone would still be functional after absorbing a shot from the 700 and the T Rex? You got me wondering now Scott. Great video.

I dont think anything was more satisfying than when scott pulled the bolt back on the tyrannosaur and the shell flew out. So crisp.

Awesome, awesome video. Thank you, needed it👍🏻.

Love it! That .416 is a great cartridge. But then again so is the good 'ole 30-06. Gotta get one of those sweaters.

Every time Scott fires a 9mm and then says, "We're going to step it up to .45 ACP" I smile a little.

Congrats on the 3 million subs! Most definitely deserved! It would be really interesting to see two of these shields against the .416 Rigby and even a .50 BMG.

GREAT video you make my day Scott thank you and keep up the good work!!!!!

I never get tired of seeing a .416 Rigby shredding everything unfortunate enough to be infront of it lol

The specific way the predator head flew off its body at the end when you threw the shield into it is uncanny in how static it was. Truly art in motion 👏

Thank you so much for consistently making high quality videos, noticed for a while you’ve got better recording gear etc, can’t wait for more ❤❤❤ Cheers from Aus. 🇦🇺

Whoever does your sound editing, Bravo. Nailed it as always.

If you want a chance for those bullets to go through, don't use hollow points. They are not meant to go through a target, but to do as much damage as possible (and possibly go through), by expanding. You want a bullet to remain in tact to have a chance to go through a target. Similar to the 700 Nitro Express, it is a very large shell, so it "pancakes" out when it hits the target to a large diameter making it difficult to penetrate the target, even with the large firing charge behind it (Although, like you said, it does hit like Thor's Hammer). The .416 Rigby is a smaller (slimmer) shell, so it went through.

I knew the 416 was coming out when the 700 didn't go through it! That 416rigby is a beast, I would like to see you try to find something that can actually stop that round. Awesome as always Scott, happy holidays to you and your family.

The 700 FMJ probably didn’t have much of a chance being its soft and has a huge amount of surface area but it’s crazy that it stopped the 577 brass solid. Wasn’t expecting that. Definitely level 4 haha. Also props on 3M subs!!! 🔥🔥💜💜

Guns that shoot a round like a 577 tyrannosaur is why Kentucky Ballistics is the best . I've seen enough AR videos give me the freedom calibers my American heart desires.

The serration profile on that OTF is badass

Congratulations on 3 mil and I'm glad I've gotten to enjoy you for most of your great work.

Very interesting! Where on earth did you find that shield?! As always, thank you, Scott, for making fascinating and wholesome videos.

congratulations on 3 million! you really deserve it

Scott if you ever decide to give this up, I think you would be a GREAT comedian!!!!! So funny!!

Congratulations on the big milestone. The T-Rex all the way. Just because. I shot a 375 H&H Nitro Express once. Recoil was incredible. I just can’t imagine how much that monster must kick. Love it.

That ballistic shield looks like it's a great working surface to chop up some ingredients for the Kentucky Cooking series...👀 Congrats on the 3 mil! Cheers, T

Is it just me who thinks it would be really interesting to see Scott with the Russain 6 gauge ks-23 shotgun

Thanks Scott Merry Christmas!!😁😁😁🎄🎄🎄☃⛄

Thanks for coming out and making a video man. We all know you feel like crap it means a lot that you can still come out and shoot for us. Merry Christmas to you and your family thanks for all you do!!!!!

That was seriously impressive to see didn’t think those shields would hold up to that must just be the fast rifle rounds that it don’t like. Great stuff Scott you keep us smiling always pal 👍🏻

Another great video! Thanks!

Congratulations on the 3 million subscribers you deserve them brother never stop what you love doing

As always a very entertaining video and the 700 Nitro is my favorite by far. The destructive power of that gun is very soothing. Stay safe and take care.

I'm interested in the more powerful Semi-Auto types. The HCAR is a beautiful thing to me! Also the 500 Auto Max, which I do finally own thanks to your older videos :) I wonder if you'd eventually get the Noreen Bad News in .338, that would be awesome!

The guns are cool... BUT this man's genius for comedy is the best😂. I don't know who's doing the editing cuts, but they're top notch hilarious!😂

Thanks again for another great video! That 700 NE is a beautiful rifle!!

hope you feel better big guy! thanks for the video when youre under the weather.

Congrats on 3 million Scott! I love that HCAR but man that 416 Rigby is something else! Wonder what it would take to stop the 416? Maybe a Kentucky Kustom ballistic shield?🤔

finally, someone marks the bullet entry so theres no question about your shooting.

Congrats on your 3 mil Scott…….. have a merry Xmas and God bless yo

When you brought out the HCAR and showed off a pretty much fully loaded mag, I was expecting a little Fall auto Friday tribute, may that series rest in peace. Also hope you get over your cold pretty quickly, mine's unfortunately kept me out of college.

Muito legal, parabéns. Tento sempre divulgar seu canal aqui no Brasil, sou um fã 😉👍🏻🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Honestly, what can relax you more than watching Kentucky ballistics from morning to night so I can't think of anything and nobody knows better to shoot things than Scott or not 🤜💥🤛

Scott - most of your videos highlight the more popular rounds and many not so popular. What I’d like to see you highlight is my favorite round of choice for carry & that’s the .40 Cal. It’s a very capable round and would love to see a segment on it. Thx for reading this. 👋🏻✌🏻👍🏻
